Abstract

A system (100), including: a fluidic actuator (2) which can be acted upon by a pressurized fluid and has an actuator member (3), a pressurized fluid provision device (4) which is adapted to carry out a position control of the actuator member (3) and, within the position control, to apply the pressurized fluid to the fluidic actuator (2) in order to move the actuator (3) into a prescribed position, the pressurized fluid provision device (4) being adapted to carry out the position control taking into account at least one system parameter, which describes a physical property of the system and/or a requirement parameter which defines a requirement for the positioning of the actuator (3), wherein the pressurized fluid provision device (4) is further adapted to perform an assistance procedure and to determine and/or verify, within the assistance procedure, the system parameter and/or the requirement parameter on the basis of a movement of the actuator (3) and/or a consideration of physical limits.
